OF THE COUNTY RECORDER OF SAID COUNTY, AND'"THE-IPIPROVE- MENTS THEREON. AMOUNT OF THE OFFER: $75y000 STATEMENT OF THE AGENCY'S DETERMINATION OF THE AMOUNT OF THE OFFER: The above amount is believed by the Agency to be the full amount of "just compensation" for the acquisition of the above-described property. The determination of just compensation is based upon the Agency's inspection of the property and the consideration of an appraisal of the property made independently by a competent profess sional appraiser. The determination of just compensation is not less than the Agency's approved appraisal of the "fair market value" of the pro- perty. The term "fair market value" is defined and recognized by the courts of this state in eminent domain proceedings as: • ..the highest price estimated in terms of money which the land would bring if exposed to sale in the open market, with reasonable time allowed in which to find a purchaser, buying with knowledge of.all the uses and purposes to which it was' adapted and for which it was capable" [Sacramento Southern R. Co. v. Heilbron, 156 C. 408, 409, 104 P. 979, 980 (1909)]; and the term as so.defined was used by the Agency and the appraiser in making their respective determinations of value. Any decrease or increase in the fair market value of the real property to be acquired prior to the date of valuation caused by the Azusa Central Business District Redevelopment Project or by the likelihood that the real property to be acquired would be acquired for the purposes of the Redevelopment Project, other than that due to physical deterioration within the reasonable control of the owner, has been disregarded by the Agency and the appraiser in making their respective determina- tions of value. However, in the event any significant change in physical conditions of the property occurs prior to the time the Agency acquires title, the determination of fair market value and the amount of the offer are subject to redetermination by the Agency. Nevertheless, it should be noted that the appraisal and the Agency's determination of just compensation do not reflect any consideration of or allowance for any relocation assistance and payments which the owner may be entitled to receive under state law or for the Agency's agreement to pay certain costs arising from the purchase of the property. -2-
